I had to look up the connection between Die Hard and Christmas. 
The Lion in Winter (Christmas Court)
Becket (whose Feast Day is 29 DEC)
The Nightmare before Christmas
The Thin Man
The Santa Claus
Rudolf/Grinch/Charlie Brown animations, of course, and, for those who enjoy old Veggie Tales, The Toy that Saved Christmas.
Oh, and thumbs up on the Dutch reference above for Thanksgiving.

PS Is it wrong of me to admit that I experienced a confluence of ideas between .EC.'s Die Hard reference and his avatar?

The Santa Claus! All judge Rienhold wanted was a wienie whistle.

Quick question...
Have you watched Die Hard?
Nope, never have. I used the blush emoticon because I figured I'd be turning in my "man card" for not having seen it.
So, yeah, I knew that Die Hard was a Bruce Willis action film, but had to look up the imdb to get the Christmas connection. Not much of a fan, though I liked him in Death Becomes Her.

Do yourself a favor...
Buy a copy of it. You'll watch it more than once.
It is one of the best Christmas movies ever produced.

Won't spoil it for ya, Gazoo, but the movie is chock-full of the greatest one-liners ever.
"That was Gary Cooper, a**hole!"

OP
Starting Christmas Eve at 6pm I usually watch it at least once most of the way through and then get the big parts 6-7 other times throughout the next 24 hours. One Christmas Eve I worked their shift. I watched it from 12-7 on and off the entire night.
